The Safe Conversations process ensures partners do just that. It is […]

2 Possible Solutions for Relationship Issues

Here, we will explore 2 possible solutions for relationship issues. If the past does affect the present as Imago theory contends, then especially at the start, you are probably going to be partnered with someone who will trigger old negative feelings, often unintentionally  (like the feeling of “being dismissed”).

The Space Between

For years I have stressed the importance of safety in an intimate relationship and I still believe it is paramount.

Truth 10: Your Marriage is the Best Life Insurance Plan

By the end of the book readers would know that Harville likes Star Trek and that one of his favorite characters is the Vulcan, Mister Spock. In fact, Harville credits Spock with summing up what he and Helen do. “It was Spock’s good-bye blessing that inspired me: Live long and prosper, and let peace be […]

Truth 9: Your Marriage is a Laughing Matter

The title of this chapter camouflages a more serious philosophical question: as humans, who are we really?  Harville’s contention is that: “At our core is JOY. It is our essential nature – with us from the moment of birth. Birds have flocks. Dogs have packs. Horses have herds. And humans are wired for connection.  Connection […]
